Kaushal admits to not reporting approach

COLOMBO - Kaushal Lokuara-chchi failed to report an approach made to him, Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has said, and had not been charged with any other corrupt activity. Lokuarachchi had rejected the approach, the board said in a statement. SLC was responding to various media reports linking Lokuarachchi to corruption in the Bangladesh Premier League. The tribunal appointed to investigate corruption in the league recently released its findings, clearing all but one of the seven. SLC said: " … contrary to the several articles carried in the print and electronic media saying that Kaushal Lokuarachchi had pleaded guilty to match fixing, he was not charged for any corrupt activity and the only offence he had committed was a failure to report an approach made to him, which he had rejected."–Agencies
